< cpp‎ | utility‎ | tuple

Defined in header `<tuple>` |  |
| (1) |
template< class... Types > void swap( std::tuple<Types...>& lhs, std::tuple<Types...>& rhs ) noexcept(/* see below */); |  | (since C++11) (until C++20)
template< class... Types > constexpr void swap( std::tuple<Types...>& lhs, std::tuple<Types...>& rhs ) noexcept(/* see below */); |  | (since C++20)
template< class... Types > constexpr void swap( const std::tuple<Types...>& lhs, const std::tuple<Types...>& rhs ) noexcept(/* see below */); | (2) | (since C++23)

Swaps the contents of lhs and rhs. Equivalent to lhs.swap(rhs).

1) This overload participates in overload resolution only if std::is_swappable_v<Ti> is true for all i from 0 to sizeof...(Types). 2) This overload participates in overload resolution only if std::is_swappable_v<const Ti> is true for all i from 0 to sizeof...(Types). | (since C++17)

### Parameters

lhs, rhs | - | tuples whose contents to swap

### Return value

(none)

### Exceptions

`noexcept` specification:
noexcept(noexcept(lhs.swap(rhs)))

### Example

Run this code

    #include <iostream>
    #include <string>
    #include <tuple>

    int main()
    {
        std::tuple<int, std::string, float> p1{42, "ABCD", 2.71}, p2;
        p2 = std::make_tuple(10, "1234", 3.14);

        auto print_p1_p2 = [&](auto rem)
        {
            std::cout << rem
                      << "p1 = {" << std::get<0>(p1)
                      << ", "     << std::get<1>(p1)
                      << ", "     << std::get<2>(p1) << "}, "
                      << "p2 = {" << std::get<0>(p2)
                      << ", "     << std::get<1>(p2)
                      << ", "     << std::get<2>(p2) << "}\n";
        };

        print_p1_p2("Before p1.swap(p2): ");
        p1.swap(p2);
        print_p1_p2("After  p1.swap(p2): ");
        swap(p1, p2);
        print_p1_p2("After swap(p1, p2): ");
    }

Output:

    Before p1.swap(p2): p1 = {42, ABCD, 2.71}, p2 = {10, 1234, 3.14}
    After  p1.swap(p2): p1 = {10, 1234, 3.14}, p2 = {42, ABCD, 2.71}
    After swap(p1, p2): p1 = {42, ABCD, 2.71}, p2 = {10, 1234, 3.14}
